Boo! BART riders suffered additional indignities this morning, as the system struggled to exorcise the "ghost train" that somehow got onto the system. For some reason, the computer system became convinced there was a train stuck at the Embarcadero and shut down, forcing all conductors to drive manually. When driving manually, trains can only go 25 mph in the Transbay Tube, which caused massive backups and delays.

This is in addition to the other computer problems BART has been suffering, where the track switching equipment keeps freezing up in the South Bay. Maybe it's time for BART to invest in a new speedy Linux system.

Not really related, but what exactly do you think "Ghostbusters" theme song singer Ray Parker Jr. means when he says, "Bustin' makes me feel good"?
